Course overview
HIV/AIDS continues to impact millions worldwide, with 36.2 million adults and 1.7 million children living with the virus by the end of 2018. While advances in care have reduced AIDS-related deaths by 56% since 2004, managing HIV/AIDS remains complex and requires up-to-date, evidence-based knowledge.
This comprehensive short course equips healthcare professionals to deliver holistic, effective care, contributing to the achievement of the 90-90-90 targets. Covering key topics such as epidemiology, prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and care strategies, participants will explore essential areas like antiretroviral therapy, management of opportunistic infections, HIV in children and adolescents, nutritional considerations, and emerging approaches like PrEP and PEP.
